Little Miss Hungry
By: Mia B

Welcome to satisfying village. This place is full of good treats to eat. It is a very cheerful place with hills made of gingerbread. It is a very delightful little town. I guarantee you happiness if you come here. In the morning the birds happily chirp their way through the sky. In the afternoon, bikes with cookie wheels and frosting handle bars are ridden through gram cracker crusted streets. At night, the gumdrop moon sets over the horizon, and they lay down to rest. It is a joyful town. Or was…

“Grrr! I’m so hungry!” Shouted Little Miss Hungry. Little Miss Hungry was a sweet looking little girl that looked like she was smart and had a lot of potential. She had a problem though. She couldn’t stop eating. She would eat every time she saw food, smelled food, or even thought of food! It was serious! For example, last week Little Miss hungry went out walking and spotted Mr. Ice Cream walking down the street. She immediately picked him up and ate him! Right there! In the middle of the street! That was the end of Mr. Ice Cream of course.

Right when she heard of satisfying village, she immediately asked for directions to get there. “ Excuse me!” She squealed. “Where do I find satisfying village?” She asked. “Take a left on sugar cane way, and travel up. It should be there.” “Thank you!” Said Little Miss Hungry. “What’s your name again?” “Mr. Negative.” He said. “That’s a very negative name!” “Just go away you hungry beast.” Said Mr. Negative. “Ok.” Said Little Miss Hungry. She set off on her long adventure to find satisfying village.

“Wow.” Said Little Miss Hungry when she had gotten to satisfying village. “This is amazing!” And it was. There were houses made of ginger bread and streets made of peppermint and candy cane. It was like heaven on earth. Right then she jumped out of her car and started chomping down on everything in sight. The houses, the cars, the people and just everything! “Ahh!” Screamed the innocent children. “Get out of here!” Said the people. “No one wants you here!” So Little Miss Hungry left feeling tired and down. She felt very ashamed of herself. She knew she had a big problem that desperately needed to be fixed.

“Wait.” Said a strange voice. “Who’s there?” Asked Little Miss Hungry. “I am Little Miss Helpful.” She said. “I’m here to help you fix your problem.” “Really?” Little Miss Hungry asked with glee. “Yes.” Said Little Miss Helpful. Suddenly. She put a spell on Little Miss Hungry. “Now, this spell will make it so that you are never to hungry again.” Said Little Miss Helpful. Then she disappeared without another word. Little Miss Hungry decided to go back and try this again without hurting anyone.

When she walked into town she saw a bunch of foods that she would want to eat but for some odd reason, didn’t eat them. She was very proud of herself. And everyone in satisfying village was proud of her too. She began to make more friends then she ever had before. “Hmmm this is pretty fun!” She said with a grin.

Now that Little Miss Hungry knew she wasn’t hungry anymore, she changed her name to Little Miss Full. She had a much better life, knowing that she could control her hunger. That made her a better person. But she wasn’t always full…and when she wasn’t, you know who she’d call. Don’t you?
